Bath resealing in Ellington Thorpe, done in place
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and a new seal stops it. We work on wet rooms, basins & vanity units and baths, and common reasons people contact us are black spots in the silicone and stained silicone.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Signs you need bath resealing in Ellington Thorpe
In time, even good sealant discolours. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Old sealant that looks dirty
- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
- Gaps in the seal
Before you book anyone
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if they find more damage
Is resealing worth it?
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Ellington Thorpe. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes around two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The old silicone is cut out completely.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Give the seal a regular clean
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Reseal before water gets in. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
